Old Symmetra spotted in Contenders by Mangachu

Even though old Symmetra had her problems, this was the kind of gameplay that made her fun. New Sym will never be able to do this.

Especially with the meta shifted away from Dive, old Sym would have shined.

Hopefully her left click sees another revision, because the laser beam ain’t cutting it.

That feels like a lifetime ago! I do miss her old playstyle. Why they didnt just keep her as she was but give her a healing ability i will never know.

What? This clip is recent…

Mangachu is the best Contenders player. Maybe not the strongest but definetly the funniest.

Ah, the perfection of old Symmetra. What a golden age it was :’)

because she was never intended for healing. Do you not know what shield support is? It only enhances shield hp for you and if anything they should of let it regenerate during combat slowly and out of combat faster. Auto lock beam was her potential of being a close range hero with zero survivability relying on dodging.

She still does that, but with it’s no longer with primary fire and a lot rougher since her splash damage sucks. Overall they need to stop listening to those who complained about it being an auto lock. Current Primary fire is not giving results where as the old one did. Right click still gives results even without the shield piercing concept.

Here we are 2 months later and the only buff is 2meters on primary fire. They’re toying / mocking the Symmetra mains as of right now with those tested results on the ptr.
